Expression of active human epidermal growth factor (hEGF) in tobacco plants by integrative and non-integrative systems
2004-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Human epidermal growth factor (hEGF) was expressed in Nicotiana plants using integrative and non-integrative systems. Nuclear transformation was carried out using genetic constructs that allow hEGF accumulation into the cytoplasmic or apoplastic spaces. Protein level did not exceed 0.00001% of total soluble protein in the cytoplasm, but reached values of up to 0.11% when hEGF was targeted to the apoplast. In addit...
